Thanks for inquiring about my parents Ted And Wanda Henderson. I must say it was quite a surprise when my wife came upon your message and told me about it. After all these years, it's quite rare to find someone who remembers them, especially their brief time at WNOX's Midday Merry Go Round. As you know, the bulk of their career was spent at Nashville's WLAC. When I was a kid, my parents would occasionally reminisce about their time in the music business and when Knoxville and WNOX came up, the thing they talked about most was the shy kid who was always back in the corner somewhere practicing on his guitar. Of course, that kid turned out to be Chet Atkins. I tend to think they might have read or heard about that legendary story and it may have jarred their memory a bit. Just a hunch. Anyway, I'm told my parents recorded 4 sides for Sid Nathan's "King Record Company" in Cincinnati in the late 40s, but none were commercially released. When I worked as a deejay at Nashville's WKDA and WENO radio stations back in the 70s, I contacted the Country Music Foundation regarding any archived material on my parents. All that was found were a few of their mail-order songbooks, but unfortunately no recordings. I'll bet those King discs still exist in a vault somewhere in Cincinnati, but there's probably no chance of ever locating them. One more thing: my parents told me about a young couple who wrote to them saying that they had named their daughter after my mother. Are you that daughter? Again, thanks very much for writing and I hope my information helped. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
